Página 108 PID SENSORS A PID sensor measures volatile organic compounds (VOC’s) in the atmosphere by Photo Ionisation Detection. The PS500 instrument uses PID sensor technology to detect VOC’s. What is a Volatile Organic Compound (VOC)? A VOC, is a chemical compound that is significantly vaporised at ambient temperatures.
Página 109 PID response of a particular VOC, to the PID response of a calibration gas. The calibration gas used on PS500 instruments is usually isobutylene. If the response of a PID to a particular VOC is eight times smaller than it is for the same concentration of isobutylene, then the response factor would be 8.
